Supervision of Steam Locomotive YAMAGUCHI Rebranding Project

West Japan Railway Company

  • GK Design Soken Hiroshima Inc.

We supervised the designs for the project of rebranding YAMAGUCHI, a steam locomotive run by West Japan Railway Co. on Yamaguchi Line.  The purposes of the project are to hand down the railway culture to the next generations through the preservation of steam locomotive in a functional condition and to create demand for tourism and revitalize the area.  We designed collective goods for SL YAMAGUCHI using motifs taken from the old model passenger car as part of the project.
